 "Great scenery and well organized" (about: 2021)
2 previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 The FRM has great scenery through multiple types of terrain. The first 16 miles are pretty flat and then you get some steep roller coaster hills. Lots of support from other runners and volunteers. | |

 "Wonderful race" (about: 2021)
4-5 previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 A beautiful course that takes you through 3 National Parks. Course layout was great, including miles of towpath, and we really appreciated the downhill start as opposed to running up Harper's Ferry. Since it is mostly in National Parks, the spectators were sparse but the organizers did a great job with volunteers who were at every turn, especially through the tough hills in Antietam, to give encouragement. I will definitely run this marathon again. | |

"By far the most enjoyed event (half) I have run" (about: 2021)
3 previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 Everything about this event was great. The organization and communication, the atmosphere, the singing of The Battle Hymn of the Republic, the beauty and difficulty of the course, Shepherdstown, everything was wonderful. A big Thank You to all those who made it possible, I am sure it was a lot of work. | |

"A beautiful scenic rural race." (about: 2019)
6-10 previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 3 I really, really enjoyed running the Freedoms Run. It is small scale so I wasnt fighting the crowds for a space to run. It was really friendly and well organised. I just loved this race. Run this if you want something a bit different from an urban large event. | |

"Such an awesome fall race!" (about: 2019)
6-10 previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 4 I ran the half marathon as my West Virginia race (currently running a half in every state) and it was incredible. The course/route was gorgeous. And the race has such a wonderful small-town feel. Yes, the course is hard and hilly, but the medal you receive for your efforts is so cool and beautiful and the post-race festivities make it all worth it. | |

 "Well organized event. Great course" (about: 2019)
11-50 previous marathons
| 4-5 Freedom's Runs
COURSE: 4 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 3 This is a great event. Flexible policies. Intended for participants and volunteers to have a good time. The course is beautiful, although crazy hilly. (I did the half marathon, which is mostly the 2nd half of the full course.) | |

"Running through history" (about: 2019)
11-50 previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 2 This marathon was terrific in several aspects. Low-stress start. Definitely some rolling hills through Antietam, but it gives you time to contemplate what happened on these hallowed grounds over 150 years ago. Incredibly well-organized and very responsive RD and crew. Thanks to no road closures, supporters can drive to several spots to cheer you on. Volunteers were amazing and inspiring! | |

"Excellent race. Relaxed atmosphere." (about: 2019)
1 previous marathon
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 Although I am local, this is a race worth traveling for. Running through the battlefield is hard but so scenic and full of history. The organizers are friendly and very helpful. There is no hard finish time or straggler bus, so you can stop for pictures or walk the hills. I ran 13.1. Well done Dr. Mark and friends. | |

"Beautiful, Well Organized Race" (about: 2019)
50+ previous marathons
| 1 Freedom's Run
COURSE: 5 ORGANIZATION: 5 FANS: 5 I chose this race for my WV marathon as it is an easy drive from Dulles. Nice small town, easy packet pickup, was able to stay on shuttle until race started which was nice as it was chilly. BEAUTIFUL course with great post race party. |
